                               The rivalry between Barcelona forward, Lionel Messi and Real Madrid’s hit man Cristiano Ronaldo will be carried once again to FIFA’s Ballon d’Or award as the duo alongside German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer have been shortlisted for the prestigious award. World soccer governing body, FIFA and France football yesterday released the three-man shortlist for the 2014 award. Ronaldo, 29, could win the prestigious individual award for a third time after lifting the trophy in 2008 and 2013.

                               Gunmen in Kenya this morning Dec 2nd attacked a quarry at Mandera town in North Kenya, killing 36 Christians. According to multiple eye witnesses, the gunmen stormed the place, ordered all the non-Muslims, about 36 of them, to step away from the Muslims and then shot them all dead.

Koeman, whose side fell yesterday at home to Manchester City by 0-3 said City who won the ti­tle last season remains the best team of the competi­tion ahead of the Blues. “Man City are the stron­gest team in the Premier League and you have to be good to have a good result against them,” Koeman declared after last night’s game. It would be noted that City won the game despite playing one man down af­ter Eliaquim Mangala was sent off. City courtesy of yesterday’s victory is now second on the table with 27 points. Chelsea who failed to win on Saturday against Sunderland is still comfortably on top the league log with 33 points.
